6 Days on the Camino de Santiago

I walked 115 km (2.73 marathons) across northern Spain on the Camino de Santiago… with almost no preparation. We walked from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela on the Camino Francés — one of the many routes that pilgrims have been walking for over 1,000 years. 🚶‍♂️ Join me on a 6-day pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago in Galicia, Spain. This journey captures the essence of walking the Camino, traversing scenic landscapes and rich local culture, particularly on the historic French Way. If you’re thinking about walking the Camino Francés, planning the Sarria to Santiago route, or just curious why people still do this after a thousand years, I hope this gives you an honest look at the experience. Thanks for watching, and see you in the next one.
